Abstract
Structures for an extended-drain metal-oxide-semiconductor device and methods of forming a structure for an extended-drain metal-oxide-semiconductor device. The structure includes a substrate, a source region and a drain region in the substrate, a buffer dielectric layer positioned on the substrate adjacent to the drain region, and a gate electrode laterally positioned between the source region and the drain region. The gate electrode includes a portion that overlaps with the buffer dielectric layer, and the portion of the gate electrode includes notches.
